Well if this thread is anything to go by the OP is probably going to snap one day and trash the boyfriends entire collection of games and figs and then wonder why he hates her for doing him an "obvious favor" or some poo poo like that.

She says one of her concerns is money so she won't trash them. She'll sell them.

The real speculation is - will she sell them for market price or garage sale price?

That's wild but uh, how does an ultrasound miss a whole baby when your stomach is sticking out past your tits?

Like ten years ago, I remember there was a show called "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" and the common theme among the ladies (Other than not knowing they were pregnant) was that they were fat. :shrug:

Also every story was basically "I had gas so horrible I knew I shouldn't trust the fart so I went to the bathroom and when I stood up, there was a BABY!"

I really hope their lawyer mounts a successful defense of "I have no son named Mortimer III".

The judge would probably really hate it, but the OP's attorney going "No your honor, we have no objections to the grandmother seeing little Onson Sweemey, so long as it doesn't interferes with my clients' time with their only child, Bobson Dugnutt" would be pretty funny.

AITA? I ruin movies we are barely watching by sharing my thoughts.


"Just let me eat my slop, OP!"

People like OP's gf are the worst. If you don't want to talk at all while watching tv in a private residence, what is the point of watching it together? But of course if you try to leave so they can have their perfect silence, they say "wait where are you going?" There's about 4 lines of dialogue in 2001 too, so it's the perfect movie to talk over while you're both on your phones.

That said, "acting out" the scene where the monkeys play with the bone is unfathomably obnoxious, so OP is probably much more annoying than he's characterized here.

The OP is DEFINITELY waaaaaaaaaaaay more annoying than they're making themselves out to be.

I couldn't possibly disagree more. It reads like he doesn't respect his girlfriend at all and is basically saying "you don't actually want to see the movie, you just want to pretend to watch it to look smart." And in exchange for condescending to allowing her to choose a movie, he wants to make fun of her and the movie the whole time. You can tell, because he considers watching a movie some kind of "commitment". When else does one sit down and watch a movie, if not on movie night?

OP is MST3K poisoned.

Who the hell still calls it tivo-ing? Is OP in his 50s? Is a 50 year old adult man acting like this, and posting on reddit to find out in he's the rear end in a top hat?

I don't remember if "Tivo" was ever verbed, but if it was, it was certainly when the screen play for Brendan Fraser's Journey to the Center of the Earth was being written.

Also the fact that he had to crack that gem out five minutes into a movie they've seen plenty of times means the OP has zero new material and has been saying these same "Jokes" dozens of times.

The fact that the girlfriend hasn't murdered him yet should be cause for living sainthood.

Reminds me of all the hospital patients I've cared for who, for one reason or another, couldn't speak. I'd ask them to write down. They always acted like it was the biggest insult and indignity despite me having no judgment on their circumstances and a simple desire to know wtf they wanted. When we did get a verbally compromised patient willing to use alternate communication means, I went so so far out of my way to make sure they got anything they drat well asked for.

Hey, they worked HARD on those Charades skills. Why just sign it/type it/write it down/tap it out in Morse code when you can act it out?

LOL at the idea of successfully telling a parrot not to say a fun word it learned.

I imagine it would be like when I was a little kid and somehow learned the word "poo poo". I marched around the house saying "poo poo. poo poo. poo poo. poo poo." as cadence. My dad yelled at me and told me not to say poo poo any more but if I wanted to, I could say 'crap.'

Que like... 3-5 year old me marching around the house. "Crap. Crap. Crap. Crap."
